Aide

"Just A Nurse's Aide"

"Just an Aide", I heard someone say,

As you passed by their way,

But they just didn't realize;

You are worth more, than money can pay.

You try to make us comfortable,

So we'll feel more at home,

And do for us all the things,

That we cannot do alone.

The first person who greets me every morning,

With a kind and gentle smile,

Is an nurses's aide, paid by the hour,

Not by her many traveled miles.

At the end of day and its time to rest,

They bow their heads and have done their best.

They thank the Lord for their daily bread,

For patience and strength,

For in His steps they were truly led.

There is a little bit of love,

Within every nurse's aide's heart,

God molded them of special clay,

And set their special work apart.

Not just an aide, but an earthly blessing,

Than Heaven itself must surely supply;

So you just can't help believing,

They must be "Angels in disguise"

Raye L. Rice -1992

This poem is shared to inspire nurse's aides and nurses to go that extra mile in caring and having compassion for the sick and elderly. If you are in the Health care profession, remember to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. God will reward those who treat His people as He would. Be the very best you can be, and the best will always come back unto you.
